Gong Mingcheng and Director Luan joined forces to defeat him.
According to Zhang Shihui's words, with their level and strength, it is a fool to fight with Ning Weimin, and to hit the stone with eggs.
So Gong Mingcheng was so angry that he was desperate, and Director Luan was also in a panic, which was inevitable.
It's called overestimating one's own abilities.
But what about Ning Weimin?
In fact, his current state is very prominent. There are so many things to be busy with, and he still doesn't care about savoring the taste of revenge.
First of all, for him, the matter at Tangong Restaurant is also endless.
Even if the asset split is completed, there are still many endings to be processed later.
In addition to finding a suitable place to place the cultural, calligraphy, paintings and crafts that you rent to Tangong Restaurant, the more important thing is the placement of talents.
There are many outstanding talents, especially those who are loyal to Ning Weimin. Their situation will become embarrassing and overwhelmed after this equity change.
Ning Weimin always needs to find a good place for everyone.
Otherwise, it would be a trivial matter that would make everyone feel cold. If all Ning Weimin's previous efforts were ruined, it would be too late to regret.
You should know that the core competitiveness of Tangong Restaurant lies in the inheritance and restoration of palace culture, and the core talents of any catering company are halls, cabinets, and kitchens.
The Tangong Restaurant was in the hands of Ning Weimin. What made him most proud of was not just how much money he made, but because he used the right time, place and people to win over a large number of famous chefs and compiled a real palace menu.
And on this basis, high-end ingredients exclusive to China and some palace specialty foods that were almost lost were discovered.
These are the most precious intangible assets. I don’t know the experience and knowledge condensed by many predecessors. This is the wealth of the entire capital and the entire China.
If these things are lost again or even lost due to changes in equity, it will be a matter of Ning Weimin making less money.
Instead, it will make Ning Weimin unable to forgive his regrets for the rest of his life.
It will make him feel that he is a sinner of the nation, far more sinful than those who resell cultural relics to foreigners.
So after Piercaton and Tiantan Park and the Service Bureau reached an asset split agreement, Ning Weimin had to continue to negotiate with Zou Guodong.
This time he planned to buy back the assets that Piercat had shared in his personal name.
His goal is to include restaurants in Tokyo and Chengde on his private asset list from then on and complete privatization.
But to be honest, he is not really trying to make money for individuals with a restaurant, but based on a sense of responsibility, he wants to do his best to do something for real Chinese food to enter the world's high-end market.
"Come on!"
Ning Weimin reached out and smiled at Zou Guodong. He then placed a pot of peach tree-like bonsai on the flower table in the corner of Zou Guodong's office.
"How is it? Look at the gift I give you..."
"I doubt your motives if I have nothing to do."
Zou Guodong still looked cold and was looking at the documents on his desk. He just looked up and ignored it. He looked like he was too lazy to care about Ning Weimin.
In this atmosphere, even Zou Guodong's secretary felt inexplicably embarrassed.
He looked at Ning Weimin with a little embarrassed, for fear that the third boss Ning Weimin would be annoyed by Zou Guodong's attitude.
However, Ning Weimin's thick skin is not comparable to that of ordinary people, and he is too familiar with Zou Guodong's indifferent temperament, knowing that this guy has always treated him straightforwardly.
He did not think it was offended at all, but instead asked Zou Guodong's secretary to make coffee for him.
And he came over further, took the initiative to take a chair and sat down on Zou Guodong's desk, "Don't look, don't look, rest. Put down the documents and let's talk."
"What are you talking about? Magazine and Tangong Restaurant. Have you talked about everything you should talk about? What else do you have?"
Ning Weimin smiled and said, "The problem of Tangong Restaurant is not that simple. Although the matter of dividing the family has been agreed, and by the Spring Festival next year, we will still operate with a dominant position. But during this period, personnel ownership will still become the most important core issue. I have to say that the competition for talents has begun. In order to make some excellent chefs and managers willingly give up the state-owned iron rice bowl, we will follow the
If I do it, I have to offer them generous treatment, but also give them enough exciting prospects. If others don’t say it, I will just say Du Yang and Pan Long in Chengde. I can’t let them go. So in order to stabilize them, I will give up the ownership of the Beijing Tangong Main Store and choose Chengde’s restaurant. That’s not all, I will also increase the dividends of their performance bonuses. Otherwise, they will hesitate if they want a job or do it for me.”
Zou Guodong obviously listened to these words. Although he was still holding documents in his hand, he stopped unconsciously, but looked out the window and thought for a while.
After a while, he responded, "Talent is indeed a problem. You are right. How can a good restaurant leave excellent chefs and managers? Then you tell me, what do you need the company to do for you and how to support you? Do you want money or people?"
This is really meaningful, with a generous and harmonious atmosphere.
However, because of this, Ning Weimin was a little stuck.
He didn't expect Zou Guodong to be so easy to talk to. He was stunned for a moment, but instead felt a little embarrassed.
"I want to... buy the assets of Tangong Restaurant to the company from the company... I am willing to pay 15 million US dollars..."
"What? You have so much money!
"Zou Guodong was surprised at first, but then he was puzzled. "But why do you do this? Isn't the company supporting you enough? At such a big price, just to turn the restaurant into your private property? Haven't you ever thought about how much operating pressure you have to bear? The domestic market is not as good as the outside world. Private enterprises are not as good as foreign capital. They are just a business without fathers or mothers at all. Why can't you run for the company like in the past? Besides, you are still a shareholder of the company. Even if you maintain the status quo, you can share the profits of the restaurant. Or... you have already thought about leaving the company with this... "
Zou Guodong's imagination became bigger and bigger, and finally returned to the old issue he cared about the most.
Ning Weimin quickly denied, "I don't mean to leave the company. I am also very grateful for the company's support for me all the time. I know more about the status of private enterprises in China."
Then he explained apologetically, "But Piercatton is a foreign-funded enterprise after all. From the perspective of Chinese food culture inheritance and management, this may become a greater restriction and limitation on the restaurants I come to run in the future..."
“Biger limits and limitations?”
Zou Guodong repeated, completely putting down the documents in his hand, and his eyes were looking at Ning Weimin's face.
That look was still an incomprehensible question mark.
Ning Weimin said, "I mean that every country and every nation have something that is proud of themselves. For us, Chinese food is something that can shine in our culture and make every Chinese proud. Although the current status of Chinese food is a bit embarrassing, it cannot be recognized by the high-end class in the world. But we all know that court dishes and official seats have this potential. Whether it is luxury, culture, ingredients, or cooking, it is no less than French food. So under this premise, I think a Chinese food brand that makes Chinese people proud should belong to our Chinese people 100% and should not have any connection with foreigners. I cannot mistakenly think that we have achieved amazing results with the help of the French. And we cannot make people feel that the Chinese food I run is not pure Chinese food at all, but has become outstanding by the improvement of French food..."
Ning Weimin's words surprised Zou Guodong even more. He did not expect that Ning Weimin was an employee of a foreign-funded enterprise.
No, he is a shareholder, he would actually mind this form of things.
After pondering for a moment, he said quickly, "Are you a little pretentious? Whether in terms of love or interests, Mr. Piercatton and the company have no place to be sorry for us. Especially as a member of Piercatton, we have the responsibility to protect the interests of the company. But as a shareholder, you still think so. I really don't know how to evaluate you. Do you really think it is necessary?"
"Of course there is." Ning Weimin said without hesitation, "I know that I don't say this like human words. To be nice, I have to be cheap and behave well. To be ugly, I want to be a bitch and a archway. Perhaps in the eyes of some people, people like us are no different from the foreign compradors in the past. It would be nice if people don't call us traitors. But the problem is that the essence of this matter is cultural ownership and cultural discourse rights. Can you imagine that the Moulin Rouge in Paris was bought by a Chinese or a black man. Can you imagine that the famous chef of French food is not a Frenchman? Sometimes, only when things come to an end will you know what it feels like."
Zou Guodong frowned and thought for a moment, saying, "It doesn't sound like human words. I'm not afraid that you don't like to listen. I have different opinions from you. Our nation always regards itself as culture, but is it the nation's world? Does culture really need to artificially create a sense of boundaries? You said you want to promote the development of Chinese food overseas, but if you do this, you are strictly guarding it, how can you expect others to accept you? And I always feel that there is a little bit of stinginess and timidity..."
Zou Guodong said, "You have always liked to grab meat from the wolf's mouth. I have to advise you, you have to correct your problem of digging out a corner of the company, otherwise I will be anxious about you sooner or later."
